Hi Bellz,

WAKSA ran a poll in August asking members to vote for the types of events they wanted to take part in this summer.

Our event schedule is a direct reflection of this - wave events were not highly ranked by members.

This may be to do with the well organised and well received im-promptu wave events organised by riders and kite shops who have an especially keen interest in wave riding.

Good winds,

WAKSA

Hi all, The Brighton Wave Comp is in the planning stage at the moment, my great comp organising mate Mike B is totally under the pump this year so can't help. I've busted my shoulder, but still keen to help organise, maybe we can have a GIMP category for myself ands others like me

Anyway, I'm sure the core crew at Brighton would be keen to smash a few lips at Brighton. OK to all the REAL wave riders- we all know Brighton is crap - but we love it's easy olcation. I was thinking maybe just a day comp, same rules as Johhny Geyer had at Leighton in winter. ie. Break riders into 2 groups - 20 minute heats, top half go through until we get final 4 for final then a half hour final. All riders judge the heat they are not in. If we have a junior, womens, old bastards divisions, low numbers, maybe we just run one 30minute heat/ final. Go hard, thats my 10cents worth, stuff the wind if its over 15 knots to 30 its on. Ryland, Dale, Corey, Bevo, Gleno, Auzzie, Nyall, Johhny G, Andy etc etc are ya keen. may be a couple of flags, maybe Ian can pull up his Great AIRRUSH Trailer.

maybe run it mid Jan some time. Johnno Keys
